Charin‘s place is an excellent value. For the price of a Room in s Budget guesthouse you get a whole Thai style house for yourself.
You stay in a traditional neighborhood with no other tourists in the Immediate vicinity .
Access to the river ferry is about 10 min on foot and you can catch the regular riverboat from across the river (Chinatown) which makes for great and inexpensive transportation.
Wonderful streetfood at the local market where the prices are awesome and the vendors honest with a sweet disposition.
Fast internet at the House/ Good airconditioning, Netflix and Amazon Prime on large Screen TV adds to the comforts.
Charon is super responsive and we got to meet his friendly wife in person.
The only drawback was a huge attack by mosquitoes which came in through the drain in the 1st floor bathroom since the house is so close to the river.
Our daughter slept downstairs in the common area and got lots of bites. After that she slept in the upstairs bedroom with us which is mosquito proof.
After I found out they come through the drain I clogged it with a rag and we had no more problems.
Overall we had an excellent time and Charin is a wonderful host who provides a space which really makes you get to know a traditional Bangkok life style .
I highly recommend the place !
